    Chevy Equinox vs. Chevy Traverse: Choose your Crossover

    Last updated 1 year ago

    Crossovers are the practical and stylish choice from your Chevy dealership. They have the extra room for everyday chores, but they are easier to handle in traffic due to their compact build. However, all crossovers are not alike. Assessing your needs is crucial in ensuring that you get the best crossover from your Chevy dealer.

     Interior

    Crossovers are designed to give you space. How you plan to use that space is the best criterion for choosing between the Chevy Equinox or Traverse from your dealer. The Equinox focuses on making a small amount of space as comfortable as possible for passengers. If you’d like more cargo space from your crossover, then the Traverse features up to 116.4 ft³, compared to the Equinox’s 63.7 ft³.

     Power

    Consider how much power you’ll need from your Chevy Crossover. The Equinox is designed to give you plenty of smooth handling and acceleration through the city and highway, but it may not be your best option if you plan on towing heavy items.  In a side-by-side comparison, the maximum towing capacity of the Equinox is 1,500 lbs in the base model, whereas the Traverse’s is 5,200 lbs.

     Fuel Economy

    The Traverse’s bigger engine and fuel tank comes at a cost.  While the actual fuel efficiency depends on the trim, the fuel economies of each Chevy Crossover vary.  With its smaller size and engine, the Traverse generally provides more miles per gallon.  Consult with your Chevrolet dealer to see if there is a difference in fuel economy between trims.

     If you’re still unsure about which Chevy is right for you, then a test drive can make all the difference.  To see how the Traverse or Equinox handles, schedule a test drive here at Gateway Chevrolet.  We’re your quality Chevy dealership serving Tolleson, Buckeye, Avondale, Phoenix and the surrounding areas.  Our dealers are here to serve all of your Chevy needs.  For more information or to schedule a test drive, call (623) 687-3504 or contact us online today.

    Look Over Essential Car Buying Terminology Before You Come Into Gateway Chevrolet in Avondale

    Last updated 1 year ago

     If you're looking to buy a car, then you should be familiar with the terminology so that you'll be  comfortable shopping around and know what to ask your Chevy dealer to get exactly what you want.

    Here's a look at the terminology you'll encounter at any dealership:

    MSRP

    This is the manufacturer's suggested retail price and is the amount a new car is typically sold for at the dealership. 

    Dealer Invoice

    This is the published amount the dealership paid the manufacturer for the car.

    Destination Charge

    The shiny new car didn't magically appear on your dealership's lot.  Instead it was shipped there, and this cost is called a destination charge. 

    As Is

    The new cars that come from your Chevy dealership come with some sort of warranty.  This is not the case with an “as is” car, which clearly states that it comes with no warranty or guarantee.

    APR

    APR means annual percentage rate, which is the annual percentage paid when financing a car.

    Lease

    If you love driving the newest Chevrolet, then you may be interested in leasing.  This is when you pay for the car monthly for a predetermined period time.  When the time period ends, you return the car.  Then you can lease a new car or purchase a different one from the dealership.

    Title

    The title is a legal document that shows ownership of the car.  When you buy a Chevy, make sure you, or the financial institution loaning you the money, gets the title.

    At Gateway Chevrolet, serving Buckeye, Tolleson, and Goodyear,  Arizona, we make car buying as straightforward as possible and we focus on giving you the treatment you deserve. 

    If you have any questions, feel free to call us at (623) 687-3504. We can help you find the Chevy that’s right for you today.

    Gateway Chevrolet Suggests a New Way to Track Gas Mileage

    Last updated 1 year ago

    While your Chevy dealer will work to provide you with a quality vehicle, it’s up to you to maintain it.  Apple now has the iTunes Car Care application on itunes.apple.com, so you’ll no longer need to keep a notebook in the glove box or even an oil change sticker on the windshield.

    Preventative car maintenance ultimately goes towards one goal and that’s to save you money.  Something else that achieves this is fuel efficiency.  The Car Care app will monitor your fuel economy with every trip and provide you with an average.

     Of course, buying a quality Chevy vehicle is one of the best measures you can take in saving money.  Gateway Chevrolet is your quality dealership in Arizona for Tolleson, Buckeye, Avondale, Phoenix and the surrounding areas.  To schedule a test drive or for more information, please call (623) 687-3504 or contact us online today.

    Gateway Chevrolet in Avondale Has Your Guide to the New 2011 Chevy Cruze

    Last updated 1 year ago

    The new 2011 Chevy Cruze is a big departure from its predecessors. In a market flooded with cars like the Honda Civic, Nissan Versa, Volkswagen Jetta Sportwagen and several others.

    The Cruze separates itself from the rest of the pack. It isn’t just another compact car built on a generic template. When you stop by Gateway Chevrolet, take a look at what’s different about this car.

    Quality

    The Cruze is designed to give it the same look and presence of a luxury sedan with the price of a compact car. You can rest easy when you’re driving it off the dealership since it has an overall safety rating of five stars in government crash test ratings and top scores from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.

    Comfort

    From the Chevy Cruze LS to the LTZ, any dealership trim you test will have a well-designed and solid interior. With options like a fully loaded audio system and in-dash navigation, no matter which model you drive off of the dealership lot, you’ll be riding in comfort and style.

    Control

    While you’ll see the all-new chassis of the Cruze at Gateway Chevrolet, you’ll feel the difference in the test drive. Enjoy its secure handling and smooth power with its turbocharged 1.4-liter engine. And while the Cruze will definitely turn heads, it won’t be because of the engine noise. This Chevy is designed to be as quiet as possible. You’ll see for yourself as you accelerate around those loose turns around the dealership track.

    To get behind the wheel of the new 2011 Chevy Cruze, come to Gateway Chevrolet in Avondale! 

    We’re your quality Chevy dealership for Buckeye, Tolleson, Avondale, Glendale, Phoenix and the surrounding areas. To talk with our dealers for more information about test driving a Chevy, call (623) 687-3504, or contact us online today.
